> Regarding Parnate problems: I've read a few posts about others starting Parnate recently. Here's my update; please share if you have any ideas:

> I was massively zone-out after a few days at 40, so went back down to 30. This is a pain, since this fatgue seems to be only serious side effect. Still no real benefit, but no problems either (other than tiredness) which is a change from other ADS for me.

> I'm at bit over 2 weeks at 30-40, staggered in various ways through day, usually 1/1/1 through day. Any ideas on how to combat fatigue? It's the sort that doesn't bring sleep, but only spaciness. Xanax-induced 8 hours of sleep at night doesn't make a difference. Anyone ever try adding Wellbutrin or Reoxetine? (SLS, I saw your combos above; I don't think I could handle 160 mg!!)
Does caffeine have any effect?--realizing, of course, that you don't want to take excessive amounts of caffeine while on this drug for safety reasons. I am also on 30 mg/day Parnate and do drink a moderate amount of coffee every day, though.Todd
